Hello everyone,
I've been reading these forums for hours trying to solve this but I really don't understand enough. Can anyone give me a simple
answer?
I just got a new fridge and it has a grounding wire which I need to screw to the back and bury in the earth?! The trouble is, I live in a 21st floor condo and there are no metal pipes for me to attach the wire to. I thought I could connect the grounding wire to a plug and just plug it in another socket but, from what I have read, it seems earthing/grounding of sockets is not to be trusted here. I would ask my building manager if my sockets are grounded but I know he will just say yes regardless. Its a 10+ year old building so I'ts probably safer to assume not.
The question is, what can I do to make it safe? I'm a renter so I can't rewire everything.
I have attached some pictures of the wire, sockets and circuit breaker. I really appreciate any advice! Thanks a lot.
